International relocation doesn’t have to be difficult, as long as you plan well. One of your first steps, of course, should be to check out what your country of destination has in terms of red tape regarding requirements for entry or immigration, prohibited items and other restrictions. You can find out what you need to know by contacting the country’s US Embassy or Consulate.
You will want to choose a reliable company for your international shipping needs, and allow them to pack for you as well. As moving day draws nearer, choose what to take and what to leave behind in order to save on cost, as well as in compliance with what you discovered through prior research.

As for stuff you want to keep with you as you travel, make sure that you have it safely secured, possibly in its own box or boxes. Put on a label so that it isn’t packed and shipped when the packers and movers arrive. You should carry some of your most valuable items with you, as well as personal records, in order to make your transition smooth.
